15．An old gentleman who lives a few doors away from me can always be seen with a bag．He goes out by himself and picks up plastic bottles，plastic bags and pieces of paper everywhere．He does it all carefully and never complains．
The children in the nearby school are probably responsible for some of that litter（废弃物）．"There will come a time when they know better，"he said．"It's just not yet．So，I'll do it for them．"
Well，this morning I was out walking my neighbor's dog when I saw another neighbor，a much younger man，out doing the same thing!He had his two little sons with him and they were having good fun trying to pick up the litter．
When I commented on what a good job he was doing，he said，"Well，an older fellow in our street does this．And my friend and I thought it wasn't fair that he had to do it all the time，so now we take turns．"
Not only was he taking a turn，not only did he have a friend join in as well，but he was passing on the lesson to the next generation！
By the time I had returned the dog to my neighbor I looked again and his children's friends had joined in!
This man was teaching a whole group of young children to keep their own street sanitary．An older man had set an example for him and now he was passing it on-the next generation is doing what he did and the generation to come after that!

It is certain that people's views on happiness（63）are affected（affect） greatly by their own life experience．Unfortunately，too many people refer to being rich as happiness and there is no sign of a decrease in （64）thenumber of those who are voluntarily at the mercy of wealth．Some people whose（65）intention（intend） is to make big money appreciate being given any chance to multiply their income，believing that is（66）wheretheir happiness lies．Some are eager to inherit their parents'property，especially those who（67）are（be） known as silver-spoon kids．Even worse，some would rather break the law to satisfy their financial desire or seek their fortune（68）illegally（legal）．

13．Every year in America，high-school students who want to go on to college take a national examination called the Scholastic Aptitude Test，or SAT in a shortened way．Their score is an important factor in determining which colleges will admit them．The Scholastic Aptitude Test measures one's mathematical ability and use of the English language．Traditionally，the English part involved grammatical questions and paragraphs that test reading comprehension．
But the SAT folks have added a single question to be answered in an essay，handwritten on the spot．That's an interesting way to test writing ability，but content aside，have you ever seen young people's handwriting lately？Or anyone's for that matter，in this age of computer keyboards？Students write numbers and sign their names on bank checks．They scribble class notes in what can generously be described as the written word．
Yet today's kids are asked to write，thoughtfully and clearly，for several minutes on this SAT Test．Good luck to the text scorers who must work out difficultly the scrawl（潦草的笔迹） of young people who've been typing on computers since the age of three!Teachers insist that good handwriting can not only help one's score on the SAT，but also，later on in life，impress potential employers．And don't forget，we all have to use handwriting from time to time，as computers go down when the power goes out．
Then how to improve the handwriting？Well，with a few simple steps you can improve your handwriting．
Position the pen，you should hold the pen between the forefinger and the thumb．You should then rest it near the first knuckle（指节） of the middle finger．The rest of your fingers should be curled（卷曲）under your hand and your hand should remain relaxed．
Evaluate your writing．What do you like and what you don't like about the way you write？Make changes to your letters till you like how they look．
Take your time．Make sure that，while you are writing，you take your time．Speed is sure to make your writing messy-looking．If it is worth writing well，then take your time．
Practice．Practice it a lot； it's not enough to do it once and hope for the best．It has to be something you work at to make great improvements．

14．Terraforming （Earth-forming） other planets，also known as planetary engineering （行星工程），seems like a task still centuries away for mankind to accomplish．However，it is a vigorous topic that attracts both popular and scientific interest．Why should the possibility of terraforming other planets be studied when it may be centuries before we know enough to even decide if it's a good idea？
Mankind is getting more and more hard facts about other planets．The atmosphere of Venus has been explored； robots have surveyed the surface of Mars； Mercury，Jupiter and Saturn have been studied by spacecraft． Speculations have been answered；new questions have been raised，and enough hard data is right now becoming available to allow us to make the first attempt of planetary engineering．
In the past，people with excellent ideas about terraforming have kept them to themselves，or buried them in a desk drawer because they did not realize that anyone else was interested．But now，a wide circle of people has begun to do this kind of work．For instance，NASA funded a project on transforming Mars．
There are several strong reasons which demand that the possibilities of terraforming be studied carefully．First，it's an exciting idea of a possible future for human beings．Such thinking has a valuable role in providing options for our future directions．Secondly，the techniques of terraforming will also help contemporary technologies in weather and climate control．Thirdly，such study may assist us in detecting any possible existence of extraterrestrial（地球外的）intelligence and alien civilizations on other planets．
Though the mission is far beyond our reach at the moment，we should at least keep our options open．Through debate and study on this subject，the possibility of rebuilding other planets to make them suitable homes for people may come true some day in the future．

84．According to the context，what's the meaning of the word"Speculation"in paragraph 2？C
A．The act of discussing something with a group of people．
B．The act of studying and researching．
C．The act of guessing without knowing all the facts about something．
D．The acting of writing letters to a certain organization．
85．Why did people keep the idea of terraforming to themselves in the past？A
A．They thought no one else would show interest in the idea．
B．They gradually came to find the idea crazy．
C．They thought the idea would never come true．
D．They had few resources for further study on this topic．
86．Which is NOT the reason to support the study of terraforming？D
A．Even if we don't succeed in terraforming，such study may help us to better understand technologies such as climate and weather control．
B．Such study may explore a new direction of development for human beings．
C．Such study may enable us to find the lives on other planets．
D．As the resources on Earth are being drained，it's very urgent to study how to migrate to other planets．
87．What's the main idea of the article？B
A．It's highly possible that terraforming other planets will come true so we should increase investing in this program．
B．Even if the idea of terraforming other planets may take centuries to realize，we have many reasons to support such studies．
C．Terraforming other planets is the best option for human being's future．
D．More and more people are taking planetary engineering as their occupation．
